I suppose
it would

The light went out
Just burned itself out.
The world is not as bright
since the light went out
***
It flickered for while,
still it made her smile
Then our world went dark
when the light went out
***
I had a thought
I never thought before
I know I’ll never be
alone
***
Photographs and memories
trinkets left behind …
***
Life as free as a
summer breeze
we had so many good times.
She served it with a grin

Come in little cans
had a lot of fans
in the army infantry
***
Some people hate
but a lot of kids ate it
growing up near Waikiki
***
Mama said,
“It’s good for you”
She would serve it with a grin
And it’s not surprising
after eating it all our life,
to be in the shape were in
***
Comes in a can
kind of tastes like ham
you don’t want to see
it made
***
We ate a lot of it
and started to love it
fried up with
rice and egg
***
It was quite a feat squeezing
Hawaiian steak
into that little tin
since i left home
sure miss mom
but i don’t miss the indigestion
***
Talking about Spam …
***
Slice, dice it, fry it up
and spice it
It made me what I am
***
Spam, Spam, Spam
***
When I go back
to look up my old friends
in Honolulu
We pops some beers
and eat a lot of
Spamalulu stew
***
Mama said …

Talkin’ ’bout Spam …

“I’m Tired of Being Lonely”
written & performed by George J. Raymond
Copyright © 2016 all rights reserved
3.
I’m so confused
I don’t know
where I’m going
I am tired of being used and used
I’m tired of being lonely
***
I’ve lost my way
Every place looks
the same
I’m tired of being used and used
I’m tired of being lonely
***
Yes, I know,
some-day
someone will come along
and make it right
***
Yes, I know
that right on
down the road
I’ll find a hand to hold
Alright, alright
***
But I’m confused
I don’t know
where I’m going
I am tired of being used and used
Tired of being lonely.

“You Bring Me Back”
written & performed by
George J. Raymond

3.
When I start drinking
I get real loud
I think I’m king of the hill
Start pushing, ambushing
swinging from my hip
at will
***
You bring me back
You really calm me down
You bring me back
You bring me back
***
Hey!
I get a little irritable,
prone to be mad,
when things don’t go my way
Hair trigger,
quick one the draw,
some people say
***
You ain’t such a good old
lady you know,
you cheated on me once or twice.
I had the same feeling before,
but I put myself on ice
***
You know I tried it once or twice
but I never got it right
You know I am better in the daylight
then I am at night
***
I get a little nervous,
feel insecure,
when you leave me alone
I imagine
you’re having
relationships I don’t condone.

How long has it been since
I made you happy?
How long has it been since
we really had some fun?
***
I don’t know how
it happened, but
darling, I believed
that
I was number one
***
Thank you so much
for taking my call,
I know your abroad
having a ball
***
But until you get home,
can’t wait til you do,
I’ll feel like number two
***
No rhythm or rhyme,
to you
leaving this time
I never went out on you
I did everything you
that told me to
***
You took a cruise
way across the sea,
left me alone in
New York city
Honey pie, won’t you have
some pity one me?
***
Take care of yourself
and be all right
I sleep on your
pillow every night
***
What’s that I hear
Are you starting to cry
And you heavy at heart
saying goodbye?
***
I think I understand now
so, I’ll give it a try
I’ll always love you
Good-bye
Let that raga drop

“It’s a Pretty Good Start (Blame Game)”
written & performed
by George J. Raymond
© copyright 2015 all rights reserved
3.
I’m going to take a good look
inside my head and find out
what’s working or not.
***
I’m going to take a good look
at everything I ever said,
I’m going to put myself on the spot
***
I’m going to look at
myself in the same way
I’ve been looking
at everybody else.
***
I’m going to be critical,
play it seriously analytical
blame game
***
If you’ve got an accent
that I don’t understand,
I guess i got one too
***
But if I try a little harder
to figure you out
i’ll bet you try harder too
***
I’m going to look at myself …
***
It’s a pretty good start
don’t you think so?
I’m going to have to say
goodbye, though,
to all my so-called friends,
who kept me in the dark
***
But it’s a pretty good start.
***
I won’t you to know
it didn’t go so well
I found out things
I didn’t want to know
***
You ought to go ahead
and try it yourself,
see how far you can go
***
Sometimes you can see farther
in the dead of night
when you think you can’t see anything at all
***
Play it critical
seriously analytical
blame game
